(duck quacking) - Meow-meow!
- Weeee!
(quacking) - Hi, neighbor.
We're playing outside at school today.
Let's say hi to Ducky!
(Ducky quacks.)
- Ducky just said, "Hi, neighbor too!"
- Hello, Ducky!
Best duck in the world, yes, you are!
Look!
Ha!
Ha!
Ha!
Ducky's dancing!
Quack-quack-quaaack!
- Look at us, Ducky!
We're dancing just like you!
- Quack!
- Dance like Ducky too!
(girl laughing) (duck quacking) I love Ducky.
- I love Ducky too.
- Quack, quack, quacky!
- Quack!
- Hmmm, it looks like I have a Miss Elaina duck... - Quack!
- -And a Daniel duck today.
- Quacky!
(Miss Elaina laughs.)
- My little ducks, I have something important to tell you about Ducky.
- You do?
- What is it?
- Well... - (Daniel): Hey, it's Ducky when she was a little duckling!
- Ducky was so cuuute!
(Ducky quacks.)
- That's right.
But we knew that Ducky was going to grow.
- Hoo-hoo!
I remember when Ducky was little like that.
- But Ducky grew and grew.
- And grew!
- You said that we had to take Ducky back to the farm when she got bigger.
- I did say that.
And today is the day we're taking her to the farm.
- Today?
- Ducky needs more room to run and play and grow.
- Farms have lots of room for ducks to run and play.
Hoo-hoo!
- But I don't want Ducky to go, hmm... - Hmph!
I want Ducky to stay here, with us!
- I'm so sad.
- I'm sad too.
- I know you feel sad, Ducky is going away... and you're going to miss her.

I feel sad right now.
- I'm sad too.
I just want to sit here and be sad.
- When you're sad, it's OK if you want to be by yourself for a little while.
- Sometimes when I feel sad, making a picture helps me feel better.
- That's a nice suggestion, O.
Would you like to try that?
(Daniel sighs.)
- OK, I'll make a picture.
- I'm going to go and tell the others about Ducky.
- I'll come with you, hoo-hoo!
- I'm gonna miss Ducky.
I'm gonna make a picture so I can remember her.
(quacking) - Hi, Daniel.
Teacher Harriet told me about Ducky going to the farm.
- Yeah...
I'm sad.
That's why I'm drawing a picture of Ducky.
See?
Here's Ducky's fuzzy body... - Hoo-hoo-hoo, such a soft and fluffy Ducky.
Ha!
Ha!
- And here are her orange feet... - So she can waddle, waddle, waddle!
- Waddle, waddle, waddle... - You forgot her beak!
So she can quack, quack, quaaack!
- Oh yeah!
Quack, quack!
Hello, Prince Wednesday.
- Ha!
Ha!
- Quack are you?
- You are a quacky little duck, Ducky!
Quack!
(laughing) Ducky's so funny.
Waddle, waddle, waddle.
- Ha!
Ha!
I'm gonna miss Ducky.
I really wish she could stay here at school.
(quacking) - Hey!
What if Ducky had a backpack and a cubby and did all the things in school that we do?
You'd like that, wouldn't you, Ducky?
(quacking) - Do you want to make believe with me?
Let's make believe... that Ducky is going to school with us!
♪♪ A duck friend would be great to go with me to school ♪ ♪ Ducky could learn with us - Quack, quack, quack, quack ♪ - ♪ Wouldn't that be great to have a duck friend?

I still feel sad she has to go to the farm.

But before we go, let's take a picture, so we can look at it and remember her.

♪♪♪ - (Dad Tiger): Hi, neighbor.
Today, our friends Chase and Addison are visiting a bug museum.
They're going to see ants... worms... and some really big bugs.
That's our friend, Steve.
He takes care of the bugs at the bug museum.
The insect Steve is holding looks like a stick on a tree.
This keeps other animals from thinking it's food.
It won't hurt you.
Some bugs are really nice.
Others aren't good to touch.
It's important to ask a grown-up which bugs are safe to touch.
Those are ants in an ant farm.
Ants dig tunnels in the dirt.
There are many, many ants that work together in an ant farm.
(inaudible talking) Oh!
I see ladybugs.
Ladybugs are very, very small.
Can you see them on the window?
Wow!
That's a big, big spider called a tarantula.
Steve knows how to hold the spider so he can show it to Addison and Chase.
The tarantula is covered in teeny tiny hairs.
Can you see?
It looks fuzzy or furry!
Those bugs are called millipedes.
They have lots and lots and lots of legs.
Look at those wiggly legs.
Ah, what a neat day at the bug museum!
Thanks for visiting with us, neighbor.
- I like meeting new neighbors!
